Personal Thank You to peach for remembering to ask Mirna about me. You just made my whole year. Thanks peach, you are the best!

And if any of you guys are in the neighborhood, let me know so that I can show you the places that they've visited during their run here on the Amazing Race (and more, of course).

You are so welcome! I had a great time fulfilling my various "commissions" with the racers--it made for a great icebreaker. And, without fail, each racer was delightful to talk with and as helpful as can be.

Yeah I did.. and we submitted our application, thanks! Not hoping much on TAR:Asia2 .. the competition is fierce.. I personally know lots of local celebs and profesional athletes who've applied this time around, but we're not gonna know till June 11th. Thanks again!

Oh and Michael, Mirna basically just said she remembers me But that's good enough for me!

Wow Peach, you got so much done so fast! Takes me days just to catch up.

We had a lot of fun. Thanks for twisting my arm into going!

I think there were more racers concentrated in that tiny little bar than have ever been together anywhere ever before!

Next time I will pack a sandwich (or a bag of 250 ) because food was scarce. Did you ever even get one bite of your order?

I'd better get this to Michael before Peach's delivery arrives.

And Puddin, what were you doin' with chocolate? maMa !

Like you would even have thought of staying away! Nope--salad arrived at the same time as the racers-so guess what won out?So Michael--now you know one thing in your package! Isn't it cute? Chateau brought enough for everyone!

Hi I'm Maria (yikes on Tarflies/mtlchickie at TWOP.) Tarcon was a BLAST and a half. And georgiapeach was the first person I met this time as she was my bus ride buddy from Newark to Manhattan. (Yay for slow tunnel traffic!)

For a bit...he did recognize me from Tarcon and no matter where you are in the line, he will see EVERYONE. At the one here, he eventually had to leave the table and do the rest of the signing standing up and worked the line. So it did run about 30 minutes late, but he will get to you if you show up at the end of the line (I think that may be more to your advantage if you do go.)
